Adventure-based
facilitation trainings provide participants with the background and
skills necessary to use adventure activities in their work. Adventure-based
interventions provide powerful tools for working with youth and adult
populations. Adventure activities are engaging, group-oriented, and
solution focused. They are also ideal for intact groups because of their
inherent ability to facilitate teamwork and improve group functioning.
Adventure-Based Facilitation Trainings cover all of the topics necessary
for participants to begin using adventure-based interventions in their
work.

The primary
goals of adventure-based facilitation trainings:

•
Learn to use adventure activities to enhance therapeutic growth of
clients.
• Acquire language, theory, and experience of the adventure-based
modality.
• Develop a range of facilitation skills to increase effectiveness
as a group leader.

Very individualized with a good balance of theory and practical experience.
I loved the intimate nature and the individualized attention. The process
did a good job of helping me learn new ways to process experiences and
take a look at my own style.

facilitators need to meet in order to conduct quality experience-based
programs.
